Eviction Assistance Program

Norwalk residents have access to attorney representation for eviction defense and court proceedings from Community Legal Services. Whether you have received a 3-day notice to pay or quit, notice to vacate, or summons, visit Legal Aid’s office for a consultation immediately. The summons requires a response within five days of receipt, so any delay can jeopardize your case. Community Legal Services will work to negotiate a settlement or challenge the eviction action. There is no income qualification requirement for this program.
